Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks long-term capital growth through investments primarily in common shares and other equity securities of issuers in Canada and the United States.

Investment Strategy

The strategy of this Fund is to hold a concentrated portfolio of quality companies for the long-term. Thus, the investment portfolio of the Fund will consist of a small number of large positions with low turnover. It is not expected that the Fund will invest in more than 24 issuers at one time. Companies are purchased that can grow their intrinsic value at above normal rates over a long period of time. Companies generating substantial free cash flow are favoured.
